The show has received many positive reviews; "Shana Farr proves to be a first-rate actor, unafraid to take big risks, both vocally and physically. She does not hold back, and she is exciting to watch." (Mark Dundas Wood - Bistro Awards). "This is a terrific show. Watching this sultry singer, with all the poise, beauty and talent that the arts allow, is something to behold. It really is far too limiting to label this classically trained performer as just a singer. She is much more than that."(John Weatherford - Theater Pizzazz). "Farr has created something surprisingly new by intertwining the words of those twin colossi of songwriting, weaving songs both familiar and offbeat, both singing and speaking the texts aloud as if they were prose-something that isn't supposed to work, yet somehow, it does.
